About Home Solar Battery Storage Systems
Solar batteries capture excess energy produced from solar panels and store it in your home battery systems for later consumption, particularly during the evening, times of the day with low levels of light, or during blackouts. Storing this unused energy means you have the capacity to power your home efficiently, with clean, green electricity at any moment. You can then enjoy the benefits of lower electrical bills, have power during blackout periods, and you’ll be helping the environment from greenhouse gas emissions from coal-generated electricity.
How Do Home Batteries Work?
Your solar panels first convert the sunlight to energy that can be instantaneously used by your household loads. Then the extra electrical energy produced goes immediately into charging your home battery storage units. Then the feedback loop will ensure the battery is charged during off-peak periods to be later used during peak periods.
What is the life expectancy of a battery?
This depends on your particular model, but most solar batteries are under warranty for at least 10 years but have expected lifespans of around 20 years or more. There is an abundance of influences that can determine the longevity of a battery, these could include:
The model of the home battery
How many cycles your battery undergoes, and how deep those cycles are
The temperature environment surrounding your home battery
The maintenance and monitoring of your home battery
Following manufacturer's and installer's recommendations for use and maintenance whilst also choosing a premium product can help ensure the lasting health and efficiency of your home battery storage system.
